Ashley was also reaching out to Su Yu using her spiritual power: "Why would you use this as collateral? It's public property of the Hub."
"I know it's public property of the Hub," Su Yu shrugged. "But I have nothing else left in my hands. I don't have any other valuable assets to use as collateral."

"Moreover..." Su Yu continued, "all my assets are within the Hub. If the 'Fegg Public Network' truly falls into Talin's hands, I'll use my own assets to compensate the Hub for its losses. Are you worried I'd make a run for it?"
"Alright," Ashley sighed as she ran a hand through her hair. "So how confident are you about successfully upgrading?"
